Mostly a Caly 3, but I mix in a Delica 4, Endura 4, Mili, FG Rookie, orange UKPK and a Benchmade 530. I have sold off a couple Lavas and Crickets. Just a little too small for my hands. The Ocelot is a for the days out hunting.

I have a Sage en route that may upset the rotation. I am growing very ...

The Ocelot is great for EDC and a nearly perfect folder for hunting. Everyone loves the paw prints and it is just such a classic Spyderco.

I use an old tooth brush to clean out the scales after field dressing/skinning game. The only hard part to clean this way is under the clip. I am considering ...

First was a CE Endura 4. Then the addiction kicked in. Military, Para military X2, Delica X3, Tenacious X2, Cricket, Lava, Ocelot, Native X2......it just keeps going. ;)

The finish on mine is gaining "character" with use. Nothing like you see on a black clip, but the finish is wearing a bit.

My etched cricket PE serves double duty.

I use it daily to to cut/open everything I once whipped out my endura, military or paramilitary to cut. Now my big blades stay unnoticed riding IWB while the cricket does most chores. For some reason, people just don't flinch when you pull out the cricket ...

Paramilitary tinkering question.

Has anyone added a combo edge to the S30V blade of the paramilitary? I was thinking of sending the knife off to the factory to see if they would do it for me.
I prefer the combo edge vs. the full spydie edge since the combo suits my needs more.

The only potential problem I can think of is losing ...

My combo edge Endura is my only FRN knife. I love the blade profile of the E4, but compared to my Paramilitary and Tenacious, I just prefer the G10 handles and never carry my Endura any more.

I suppose I could buy one of the new G10 Enduras and swap the blades out though.

G10 Endura combo edge?

Oh how I wish the new G10 Enduras would also be offered with a ZDP or VG-10 combo edge.

Anything in the works? Any chance of this?

I have to agree. The PE Tenacious has officially replaced my CE Endura 4 as my daily carry. The size, fit, finish and "smoothness" of the action won me over. The Tenacious flicks open with ease compared to my Endura. Don't know if it has anything to do with the lock differences or not. I kinda ...

Here in Illinois, there are some very restrictive laws, with some municipalities having even more stringent laws.

The way our laws read, I basically have to be "knowingly carrying or in possession of a dangerous weapon with the intent to use the same unlawfully against another.." to be charged with ...

Carrying a wave IWB

I have always preferred to carry a knife IWB as opposed to clipping to a pocket. For me it is more comfortable, conceals better and leaves my pockets free. I am currently carrying an Endura 4 tip down IWB and absolutely love the knife. However, it was a little slow deploying in a pinch the other day ...
